Eleven migrants to be deported from Ceuta after ambush that ended in attacks on military

CNN Portugal28 August 2026 at 19:36

Eleven migrants will be deported from Ceuta, the Spanish enclave in North Africa, following an incident that involved an ambush and attacks on military personnel. The Spanish authorities took this decision as a direct response to the events that took place recently.

The group of migrants set up a planned ambush. The migrants waited for a vehicle to pass through the area where they were gathered, thus preparing the attack against the military patrol that was on site.

After the vehicle passed, the group attacked the military patrol, resulting in attacks on the soldiers. The incident represents an escalation of tension between migrants and Spanish security forces at the Ceuta border.

The authorities justify the deportation of the eleven migrants as a necessary measure to ensure security and order in the region, considering the gravity of the attack carried out against the Spanish military.
